I like both the technique and taste....do you marinate or season the meat first.

JW   I can remember when the whole family used to go to the mountain camping by the river for a couple of weeks just drying meat. Geeze that's been over 30 years ago. Yep those were the good old days. We usually dried meat in September around Labor Day weekend. 

nclonghunter  I don't marinade I just season with is salt and pepper.

  Marlen,
                 How long does it normally take to dry the meat depending on humidity? Also what wood are you using? Looks good...

Don  I live out in the West humidity is not that high. This meat took about two days of drying it was started Saturday around noon and at night it was brought in the house to air dry over night. The next day it was put back on the rack to finish drying. It also depends on how thin the meat is cut. The wood we used was quakie aspen. And it is really good especially when it's pounded and mixed with dried buffalo berries.

Dang that looks good Redhand, makes my mouth water. I just seasoned up a big zip lock bag of jerky for my not so primitive dehydratedor. I'm sure it won't be as good as your dried venison but I'm pretty sure it'll go fast to. Thanks for posting
